If you get hungry at #Supercrawl, there are more than 35 food trucks at either end of James St N near the main stages. And lots of wonderful restaurants and bars in between. Fantastic selection of tastes, flavours and smells for any palate or dietary requirements. @Supercrawl #hamont #discoverhamilton #artcrawl #artwork #arthamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl #foodie #foodtruck (at Hamilton Supercrawl)
A fun afternoon with my favourite 4-legged nephew, Carl @sdit_carl and his daddy Jake @jake_and_carl @jake.maurice. Started with training and playing in Gage Park. Then McDonald's for dinner, then a trip to Wal-Mart where I bought him a small toy. He was so good. We worked on his distraction training and he really improved a lot in just 1 afternoon. Smart puppy - and so damn cute. They are a great team already. He's almost 4 months. (Well, daddy is a bit more than 4 months old. Lol) We tried on a hotdog costume while at Wal-Mart.

Finally decided I'm finished an art piece I had been working on a few hours a week for about 8 or 9 months. #sitelines #artforms #centre3 #hamont #arttherapy #winterart I got to the point where every time I tried to fix a line, I'd mess up another. I realized I can't improve on it with my limited skills. Lol I wise person told me (@titaniumchild ) that "art is done when you feel it is finished, not when it's perfect. If you wait for perfect, it will never be completed." But it was a learning experience. I have progressed a fair bit from when I started. And it was a good mindful activity to keep me focused for a few hours each week. (at Artforms) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnAF99_nqfX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7n4k5thda39e
Some recent hikes over the past few days in the Hamilton area. We are lucky to have so many trails and natural areas. #hamont #fallcolours #fallcolors #hiking #princesspoint #princesspointtrail #victoriapark #eramosakarst #karstexploring #caveexploring #rbg #rbgcherryhillgate #cherryhillgate #radialtrail #mountainbrow #happyhamiltonhikers (at Hamilton, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGtktEyHFwj/?igshid=1ib5odvbu2bl1
A work in progress. 2-3 hrs a week for several weeks. Great way to focus my attention. Image is rotated 90 degrees - bottom is on the left. A northern auroral scene. Still have to finish details on the auroras then add foreground features. "Miles to go before I rest". Inspired by the work of the talented NWT artist Robbie Craig. Done at Sitelines. #arttherapy #centre3 #sitelinesopenstudio #aurora (at Artforms)
When wandering around #Supercrawl, be sure to look down various alleys and backstreets for local street art. A lot if creative works. Some are still being painted this weekend. @Supercrawl #hamont #discoverhamilton #artcrawl #artwork #arthamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl #streetart (at Hamilton Supercrawl)
My new temporary roommate.
Hmm. Got up late this morning and found out No Hot Water in the apartment. I saw a plumbing truck outside so figured it would be fixed shortly. Hours later still not avail. Called super and she had posted a notice downstairs this morning that the tank had a crack - not particularly helpful. No Hot Water today or tomorrow. So I guess it's sponge baths in the kitchen sink ( washing the sink before and after). So I may not be as April (or June) fresh as I normally would be. Lol. #nohotwater #apartmentliving #coldshave #spongebath (at Hamilton Mountain)
Trinidad-style macaroni pie. Hopefully as spicy as it seems and tasty as it smells. #trinifood #macaronipie #trinicomfortfood (at Hamilton, Ontario)
Christ's Church Cathedral on James St N. Beautiful architecture and intricate detail. #hamont #jamesstnorth #discoverhamilton

I'm pleased to say to bought one of her panels for the living room. @celynartsco #hamont #artcrawl #discoverhamilton #jamesstreetnorth #jamesstreetnorthartcrawl (at James Street North Art Crawl)
